28th April 2006 :: “...please proceed to gate number 2”

You have your boarding card with your seat number on it, you won't get to pick your own seat. The plane will not take off till everyone has boarded and even after that, it is more likely that the plane will wait for 30 more minutes for it's turn. Yet we queue in front of the gate even before it is open. This image is a combination of two images.
